The shipping forecast

Meg Clothier

'The Shipping Forecast' on Radio 4 has been keeping people up to date with the latest changes to British weather for a century, and capturing our hearts and imaginations along the way. Celebrating 100 years since the first broadcast, this book takes you to the heart of what it means to us as a nation. Each chapter brings you on a fascinating exploration of a different area of our British maritime history, from stormy weather up above to the seabed far below, and from fishing boats to the art, songs and poems inspired by the forecast.
